Yes. It's happened twice to me. I seem to have a knack for getting punctures! The good news is car handles exactly the same. The bad news of cause it that you can't repair the tyre even with a minor puncture because the act of driving on it writes it off. You are also only meant drive on a 'flat' for 250 km (155 miles) and at the same time also reduce your speed to 80 km/h (50 mph). It is really easy to forget about reducing your speed because the car doesn't handle any differently.
The only other thing I noticed was the tyre which was 'flat' got incredibly hot after driving only 30 km (19 miles), so hot that you if you had touched it it would burn you!
